You could never tire of this expansive, ever changing maritime view from one of Auckland's loveliest historic pockets above the Chelsea Sugar Works. Simply breath-taking, it spans a vast tract of established native trees down to the inner harbour and takes in Mt Eden, Herne Bay, Pt Chevalier and Meola Reef to the Waitakeres beyond.

This generous 4-bedroom family home, which was completed in 2012, was built on an elevated 1074m2 orchard platform in a quiet little no-exit street. The design maximises enjoyment of native birdsong and the spectacular outlook. The large open living, plus the master suite and office are upstairs whilst three more big comfortable bedrooms are below.

A high-pitched ceiling adds volume on the upper level and in summer, 2 sides open wide to a sheltered deck creating one big airy viewing space for relaxed indoor-outdoor entertaining. With a large island work bench and walk in pantry, the kitchen is well-equipped to cater for crowds and winters are cosy. A gas fire supplements a heat pump and bedrooms are also warmed by heat pumps.

Enjoy the outlook from the master suite, with walk-in robe and ensuite or bask in the sun on a deck off the office. Downstairs, all bedrooms expand to patios and you can spy on kereru feasting on guava berries in the garden. A family bathroom with bath is on this level plus a separate wc is handy for guests upstairs next to the laundry. Great storage is everywhere - a linen cupboard, under-stair storage and dedicated storage in the double internal, 3m stud garage.

Surrounded by beautiful bush walks, a short walk to the city ferry, Hinemoa Street cafes and Highbury shops and buses, the property is zoned for Northcote College and Birkenhead Primary. A beautiful, well-designed modern home, a magical setting with incredible views. The astute buyer will act quickly on this stunning home!
